Connecting network devices

The first two commands in this example create a Layer 3 protocol-based VLAN name "IP-Subnet_10.1.2.1/24" and add a range of
untagged ports to the VLAN. The router-interface command creates virtual interface 1 as the routing interface for the VLAN. The last
two commands change to the interface configuration level for the virtual interface and assign an IP address to the interface.
Syntax: router-interface ve num
Syntax: interface ve num
Deleting an IP address
Enter a command similar to the following to delete an IP address.
device(config-if-1/1/1)# no ip address 10.1.2.1
This command deletes IP address 10.1.2.1. You do not need to enter the subnet mask.
To delete all IP addresses from an interface, enter the following command:
device(config-if-1/1/1)# no ip address *
Syntax: [no] ip address [ ip-addr | * ]
Connecting network devices
Brocade devices support connections to other vendors' routers, switches, and hubs, as well other Brocade devices.

Connectors

For port pinouts, refer to the section "Pinouts and signalling" in the Hardware Specifications chapter.

Cables

Refer to the section
Cabling infrastructure

Connecting to Ethernet or Fast Ethernet hubs

For copper connections to Ethernet hubs, a 10/100Base-TX or 1000Base-T switch, or another Brocade device, a crossover cable is
required. If the hub is equipped with an uplink port, it requires a straight-through cable instead of a crossover cable.
NOTE
The 802.3ab standard (automatic MDI or MDIX detection) calls for automatic negotiation of the connection between two
1000Base-T ports. In this case, a straight-through cable may work just as well as a crossover cable. For more information
about this feature, refer to the FastIron Ethernet Switch Security Configuration Guide.
